About niggle.run
Every runner knows the feeling: a twinge in your Achilles, a nagging knee, a sore shin. You Google it and get 50 contradictory answers — half telling you to push through, half telling you to stop running forever. Neither is helpful.
What we do
niggle.run is an evidence-based running injury intelligence platform. We read the sports medicine research so you don't have to. Every treatment recommendation cites peer-reviewed sources and comes with a Trust Score that tells you how strong the evidence is.
How it works
Ask a question — describe your injury, ask about a treatment, or check if you should run tomorrow.
Get evidence — our AI agents search PubMed, cross-reference clinical guidelines, and synthesise the latest research into plain-English answers.
Verify it yourself — every claim links back to its source. No black boxes, no hand-waving.
What we're building
We're working towards a platform that connects your training data (Strava, Garmin) with pain tracking and evidence-based injury intelligence. The goal: catch injuries early, recover faster, and train smarter — all backed by research, not guesswork.
We also plan to connect you with qualified coaches and physiotherapists — so when you do need professional help, you get the right person at the right time. No more guessing whether to rest, push through, or book an appointment. niggle.run will help you make that call and, when it's time, put you in touch with someone who can help.
niggle.run is not a substitute for professional medical advice. Always consult a qualified healthcare professional for diagnosis and treatment.
